110 to extended each data line 16 in diagram top from the viewing area; be electrically connected with electrostatic discharge protective circuit 72 respectively; electrostatic discharge protective circuit 72 is electrically connected with the Wiring member 192a that extends the diagram left and right directions in end, substrate limit by 2 electrostatic discharge protective circuits 71.110 to extended each the sweep trace 18a of diagram left and right directions from the viewing area, is electrically connected with electrostatic discharge protective circuit 74 respectively.Be disposed at the electrostatic discharge protective circuit 74 in diagram left side, be electrically connected with Wiring member 192b, be disposed at the electrostatic discharge protective circuit 74 on diagram right side, be electrically connected with Wiring member 192d by 2 electrostatic discharge protective circuits 73 by 2 electrostatic discharge protective circuits 73.
The liquid-crystal apparatus of present embodiment possesses: see the 1st shield wiring portion 191 that the Wiring member of コ font constitutes by the plane of extending along the end, 3 limits of tft array substrate 10; The 2nd shield wiring portion 192 that 4 Wiring member 192a~192d that disposed by encirclement viewing area 110 constitute; With by being arranged at the 3rd shield wiring portion 193 that plane between the 1st shield wiring portion 191 and the 2nd shield wiring portion 192 sees that the common electrode wiring of コ font constitutes.
Constitute the Wiring member 192a~192d of the 2nd shield wiring portion 192, be electrically connected mutually, be electrically connected with the 3rd shield wiring portion 193 (common electrode wiring) by the connecting elements 9c~9f that is disposed at the substrate top in each end.Also have, Wiring member 192c, the rear side by data line drive circuit 101 disposes (substrate P side).Though at data line drive circuit 101, Wiring member 192c is connected with the data line 16 of identical layer, can be not disturb with data line 16 by the mode laying-out and wiring member 192c in IC chip installation area territory.
The 1st shield wiring portion 191 adopts same material and forms at identical layer with sweep trace 18a, and the 2nd shield wiring portion 192 and the 3rd shield wiring portion 193 all adopt same material and form at identical layer with data line 16.Thereby shield wiring portion 191~193 can form with same operation simultaneously with the pixel 19 of viewing area 110 in the present embodiment.
Liquid-crystal apparatus according to the present embodiment that has possessed above formation, because make 3 shield wiring portions 191~193, surrounding 110 ground, viewing area is configured, even, also can become liquid-crystal apparatus with better antistatic behaviour so be compared to the liquid-crystal apparatus of the 1st previous embodiment.Thereby, become the damage that is difficult to be created in the manufacturing process and can high finished product rate ground make, the liquid-crystal apparatus of good reliability.
Electronic equipment
Fig. 9 is the stereographic map of an example of expression electronic equipment of the present invention.Portable telephone 1300 in the figure, the liquid-crystal apparatus that possesses above-mentioned embodiment be as undersized display part 1301, possesses a plurality of action buttons 1302, receiving mouth 1303, and mouth piece 1304 and constituting.
The electro-optical device of the respective embodiments described above, be not limited to above-mentioned portable telephone, can be used as e-book suitably, personal computer, the static camera of numeral, liquid crystal TV set, the find a view video tape recorder of type or monitor direct viewing type, automobile navigation apparatus, pager, electronic memo, counter, word processor, workstation, television telephone set, the POS terminating machine, the image-display units that possesses equipment that touch panel is arranged or the like, in electronic equipment arbitrarily, can both constitute the display part with good reliability, the reliability that goes far towards electronic equipment improves.
